            Vulnerability of the Medical Profession as a Result of Growing Patient Autonomy


            Abstrakt
            In the context of the current health care system, patient autonomy is the main ethical pri

            medicine, which emphasises respect for patients’ rights, their freedom of choice, and cont
            own health. Presently, patients take a more active approach to their own health issues and
            information that is then used in their interaction with doctors. The new role of the patie

            has been linked to increasing consumerism, and to the emergence of new possibilities, such
            medicine or self-treatment. However, their active role affects the formation of the doctor

            relationship and the doctors’ expert position. Currently, the doctor-patient relationship 
            rather as a partnership, based on mutual cooperation, than a paternalistic relationship. D
            from in-depth interviews with doctors, this article tries to understand how doctors percei

            organisation of this relationship and the patients’ “new” knowledge of medicine. In partic
            is to show how doctors view patients who rely on information from the Internet and who tak
            their interactions with doctors.
